This APR will vary with the market based on the Prime Rate. The APR for cash advances is the prime rate plus 21.74%. This APR will vary with the market based on the Prime Rate. Your due date is at least 23 days after the close of each billing cycle. We will not charge you any interest on purchases if you pay your entire balance by the due date each month. We will begin charging interest on cash advances on the transaction date.

How We Will Calculate Your Balance: We use a method called daily balance. See your credit card account agreement below for more details. SECTION II: RATES, FEES AND PAYMENT INFORMATION How Interest is Calculated Your Interest Rate We use a daily rate to calculate the interest on the balance on your account each day. The daily rate is the applicable APR times 1/365. Interest will be imposed in amounts or at rates not in excess of those permitted by applicable law. The APR for purchases is the prime rate plus 21.74%. As of June 2, 2014 the daily rate for purchases was % (APR 24.99%). The APR for cash advances is the prime rate plus 21.74%. As of June 2, 2014 the daily rate for cash advances was % (APR 24.99%). Daily Rates May Vary. The APRs and the daily rates on your account vary with the market based on the prime rate. The prime rate for a billing cycle is the highest bank prime loan rate published in The Wall Street Journal in its Money Rates section on the last business day of the calendar month preceding the first day of the billing cycle. If the prime rate increases, the daily rates and APRs will increase. As a result, interest, your total minimum payment and the number of payments it would take you to pay off your account balance may increase. We apply any change in rates because of a prime rate change to your entire account balance. A change in the prime rate will take effect on the first day of the first billing cycle after the change. We may select a new interest rate index if the prime rate is not available.

2 When We Charge Interest How We Calculate Interest Purchases. We charge interest on your purchases from the date you make the purchase until you pay the purchase in full. See exceptions below. We will not charge you interest during a billing cycle on any purchases if: 1. You had no balance at the start of the billing cycle; OR 2. You had a balance at the start of the billing cycle and you paid that balance in full by the due date in that billing cycle. We will credit, as of the start of the billing cycle, any payment you make by the due date that we allocate to purchases if: 1. You had no balance at the start of the previous billing cycle; OR 2. You had a balance at the start of the previous billing cycle and you paid that balance in full by the due date in the previous billing cycle. Cash Advances. We charge interest on your cash advances, and their related fees, from the date you make the transaction until you pay them in full. You cannot avoid paying interest on cash advances or their related fees. We figure the interest charge on your account separately for each balance type. We do this by applying the daily rate to the daily balance for each day in the billing cycle. A separate daily balance is calculated for the following balance types, as applicable: purchases, cash advances and balances subject to different interest rates, plans or special promotions. See below for how this works. 1. How to get the daily balance. We take the starting balance each day, add any new charges and fees, and subtract any payments or credits. This gives us the daily balance. We apply fees to balance types as follows: (a) late payment fees are treated as new purchases; (b) debt cancellation fees are added proportionately to each balance; (c) cash advance fees are added to the cash advance balance; and (d) foreign transaction fees are added to the purchase balance. 2. How to get the daily interest amount. We multiply each daily balance by the daily rate that applies. 3. How to get the starting balance for the next day. We add the daily interest amount in step 2 to the daily balance from step How to get the interest charge for the billing cycle. We add all the daily interest amounts that were charged during the billing cycle. We charge a minimum of $2.00 of interest in any billing cycle in which you owe interest. This charge is added proportionately to each balance type. How s Work Cash Advance Foreign Transaction Late Payment Minimum Payment Calculation We will charge this fee for each cash advance you make. For ATM cash advances this fee is in addition to any fee the ATM owner may charge you for use of the ATM. We will charge this fee for purchases or cash advances you make in currencies other than U.S. dollars and/or in a country other than the U.S., whether or not the transaction was in a foreign currency. If you make a transaction with your account in a currency other than U.S. dollars, Visa U.S.A. Inc. ( Visa ) will convert the transaction amount into U.S. dollars using its currency conversion procedure. Under the currency conversion procedure that Visa currently uses, the non-u.s. dollar transaction amount is converted into a U.S. dollar amount by multiplying the transaction amount in the non-u.s. dollar currency by a currency conversion rate. Currently, Visa operating regulations provide that the currency conversion rate is either (1) a rate selected by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa itself receives, or (2) the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date. The currency conversion rate that is in effect on the central processing date may differ from the rate in effect on the transaction date or the posting date, and may be higher than the rate you could have gotten if you had converted U.S. dollars into the foreign currency. We will charge this fee if we do not receive the total minimum payment due on your account by 5 p.m. (ET) on the due date. This fee is equal to: 1. $25, if you have paid your total minimum payment due by the due date in each of the prior six billing cycles. OR Your total minimum payment is calculated as follows. The greater of: 2. $35, if you have failed to pay your total minimum payment due by the due date in any one or more of the prior six billing cycles. The late payment fee will not be more than the total minimum payment that was due. 1. $25, or $35 (which includes any past due amounts) if you have failed to pay the total minimum payment due by the due date in any one or more of the prior six billing cycles. OR 2. The sum of: a. Any past due amounts; PLUS b. 1% of your new balance shown on your billing statement (excluding any balance in connection with a special promotional purchase with a unique payment calculation); PLUS c. Any late payment fees charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS d. All interest charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS e. Any payment due in connection with a special promotional purchase with a unique payment calculation. We round up to the next highest whole dollar in figuring your total minimum payment. Your total minimum payment will never be more than your new balance.

If a party files a lawsuit in court asserting claim(s) that are subject to arbitration and the other party files a motion with the court to compel arbitration, which is granted, it will be the responsibility of the party asserting the claim(s) to commence the arbitration proceeding. 3. The arbitration administrator will appoint the arbitrator and will tell the parties what to do next. The arbitrator must be a lawyer with at least ten years of legal experience. Once appointed, the arbitrator must apply the same law and legal principles, consistent with the FAA, that would apply in court, but may use different procedural rules. If the administrator s rules conflict with this Agreement, this Agreement will control. 4. The arbitration will take place by phone or at a reasonably convenient location. If you ask us to, we will pay all the fees the administrator or arbitrator charges, as long as we believe you are acting in good faith. We will always pay arbitration costs, as well as your legal fees and costs, to the extent you prevail on claims you assert against us in an arbitration proceeding which you have commenced. Governing Law for Arbitration This Arbitration section of your Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA). Utah law shall apply to the extent state law is relevant under the FAA.
